Three AM

I fix up the pillows, 
I close my eyes,
I've taken care of 
Everything that
Came along today, needing
Taking care of. 

So I keep my eyes closed
And I figure, when they've 
Adjusted, I'll see something
Out there in my own
Vast beyond, sometimes 
Red barn rooftops, sometimes 
Shapes of the garden in 
My night vision, the odd 
Light of it pulling my watching out
To the old barn. 

When I opened my
Eyes, the blackest night was 
There waiting. Tonight the fog
Lifted.
